These women cannot become pregnant or carry a pregnancy due to absence of uterus or presence of non-functioning uterus. During recent years, several animal models have been used in research to develop uterus transplantation into a clinical treatment for uterine factor infertility. In the present study, the rat was used as a uterus transp... more |
